We are still in need of some smaller boys and bigger boys. We would like to fill three full teams. Please help pass the word!

still planning on three teams?

Alan Clothier will pull his name out of the pool of wrestlers for the Elementary Duals. He placed 3rd at Middle School State and will be going to Iowa.

So will state performance really decide what team they go on.

For the most part, but there will be exceptions. If all kids at a weight are in the same weight bracket at state they will be placed on the teams by their place at state.

If we have kids from different state brackets we will look at possible head to head matches earlier on in the year, placings at national tournaments, matches against common opponents, etc. We will do our best to put together the three best teams. I hope this helps?

We will be putting teams together Monday evening the 29th for the duals.

This is the last chance to get your wrestlers name turned in if you are interested in representing team Kansas for the Elementary duals!

Colton Steele would like to pull his name out. He want to focus on Greco/Freestyle after not placing at states.

Andrew Steele

We need to put Shane Winters at a 120 pounds if he gets pick. Thanks

Here are the teams for Elementary Duals. If your wrestler is listed, he WILL NOT be removed if another wrestler in that weight contacts me. There are two situations where I am waiting to here confirmation which may move a wrestler from one team to another. We also need one 130 lb kid and 2 140 lb kids. PLEASE help us fill those last spots. If your wrestler is an alternate, please send him. There are at least 16 teams competing at this event and I am sure they will get some good wrestling in. I think our alternates got 4 matches last year and there were only 8 or 9 teams.

We will need a few volunteers for the following;
- driving the vans - we will have 4 15 passenger vans - Dal Eck and Chris Bowen will drive 2 of them.
- running the tables - I believe we have to provide one person per dual per team - last year the parents took turns doing this.
- I may need someone to haul a couple coolers for drinks - the vans get pretty full once loaded with kids and bags
- I am pretty sure we have enough coaches going - I would like 3 per team - 2 mat coaches and 1 bench coach

- We have 15 rooms reserved for the wrestlers and coaches. We will do room assignments later.

We will be leaving from Cokeley's Auto Exchange in Lawrence on Friday April 9th at 1:00. Be there at noon to get checked in and get your van assignments, etc.. - 1225 E 23rd is the address - Weigh in is from 5:00 to 9:00 that night and it is a one time weigh in. I am not aware of any weight allowance so you must make weight. We will go eat after weigh in. Your wrestler will need some money for food. We will have t-shirts for sale for the parents and family members - they will be $10.00. If we sell enough of them, we will get pizza for the wrestlers Saturday night. I may need someone to help keep track of and sell the t-shirts. Last year, we had quite a few people from other teams that bought them too.



Check the forum for more information or if you have any questions, email me - dal@matteck.com - or call me 316-641-4913

Remember, we need help with 130 and 140 lb kids.

Thanks,
Dal Eck

We have our first change. Cody Phippen is not going. that moves Drake Tayson to the 3rd team.

Tucker Wilson is now an alternate on Team #1.
